Automated listing ads are coming soon! Here’s why you should get excited (and exactly how to get started).
By Jessie Trapp, Marketing Coordinator
In a world where 46% of Americans check their smartphones before getting out of bed every morning, digital marketing is a key component to meeting your target audience where they are already spending their time: online. However, finding the time and resources to invest in creating digital ad campaigns for your listings is a roadblock being faced by many real estate pros looking to utilize this powerful form of marketing.
Agents don’t have the time to be knee-deep in the trenches of digital marketing because they’re too busy out in the field doing what only humans are capable of doing – building strong relationships. On the flip side, brokerages don’t have the time to support agents’ listings on an agent-by-agent basis, as they have powerhouse businesses to run. The compromise?
Automated listing ads.
With the next upgrade coming soon to Promote, you’ll be able to support your agent’s listings without any heavy lifting. This new ability, which will be provided at no additional cost to current MoxiWorks users, will allow you to enable automated ad campaigns for your agents’ listings with a few clicks and a simple, set-it-and-forget-it style workflow.
Taking your technology offering a step further and supporting your agents’ listings through automated ad campaigns will put your agents, and your brokerage, far ahead of the game.
Here’s why this upgrade will be so powerful for your business:
One. With automated listing ad campaigns, you’ll be able to set your budget and spend as little or as much as your heart desires, meaning you’ll always be in control of what you allocate towards them.
No contract. No minimum. The power lies 100% with you.
Two. Providing agents with these campaigns shows that you’re tech savvy and know the important role that digital marketing plays in their businesses.
Three. Providing this boost demonstrates that you’re invested in your agents and their success, so much so that you’ll even take on a portion of the marketing spend to prove it.
Four. Refreshed ads featuring all of your brokerages active listings will constantly be circulating and reaching the masses. That’s powerful marketing for your brand, let alone your agents’.
Five. More eyes on listings means shorter time from list to close, and more time for additional transactions.
Six. When your get the ball rolling on your agents’ ads, it allows them to see the immediate impact digital advertising has on their businesses and will encourage them to incorporate automated ads into their own marketing activities moving forward, a win for everyone.
